The server packages.linuxmint.com appears to be off line right now (checked using http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com). You could try replacing the host in the first line of your sources list with a local mirror, if one is available where you are. Or just wait a while until packages.linuxmint.com comes back up.

It's not a problem on your end. Seems like the packages.linuxmint.com server has been having trouble lately.
